The appearance of depth and fullness of the picture is very interesting. Despite the absence of light in some places, you can see fine details. The secret is, of course, on the bridge. Very nice, I liked it.

Hmmm. Your bridge picture was very good, but this is a yawn fest.
Why HDR ? It does zero for the image. HDR has its limited uses, but sunsets and reflections are not on that list.
Maybe I'm just getting bored senseless by sunsets. Is there nothing else that can be used as a wallpaper ?

a sunset without a sun. i love it. the colors are gorgeous. it works on all levels. i find no faults.

many HDR shots on this site look like crap because their authors went out of their way to show you it's HDR. the result is a tackiness galore, unpleasant, unnatural images that look like a kid was playing with a burn tool in photoshop.

i understand some of you may like it, that's why siegfried & roy make so much money. but that's not what HDR is for. the best HDR is one that you don't know it's there.

clyde,im honestly not to crazy about sunsets either due to the fact that theres so many of them.
and the hdr in this photo was pretty light,i used it mostly to try and bring out everything from the shadows

I like this. However, I think the orange cast on the bridge is too hot and does not complement the rest of the image. Additionally, the bridge looks a little spindly and fragile. Perhaps a color substitution would help. I'm going to experiment with Photoshop to see what obtains.

I must read the rules again but I can't remember seeing the part about not being allowed to criticise a photo. I clearly stated that I like the other photo by this photographer.
I don't even know why I feel I need to defend myself against someone who hasn't even passed his/her judgement on the image. All you have done is have a go at me for not being a ass kisser.

well duh. critique or honest comments are not welcome here. this is essentially a fanboy forum. no matter how dumb, imbecilic or pointless your comment is, as long as it contains words incredible, amazing, awesome or stunning you're good to go. anything else, and it's thumbs down for you, with the ban imminent. i'm being banned as i write this!

glad to see your mac built-in dictionary has a catchy phrase generator function. keep on generating.

"glad to see your mac built-in dictionary has a catchy phrase generator function. keep on generating."

This is why you get banned, Burn. Because you're unnecessarily rude.

Anyway I really like this photo. The HDR works well and I'm appreciating the crispness but smoothness of the photo. In the bottom right hand corner, that pink outline on the rock is distracting me now that I've noticed it though.

There is a distinction between "Mother, that dress you're wearing sucks" and "Mother, I don't think that dress you're wearing flatters you."

By the way, I came by my facility with English through hard work. The Mac has no catchy phrase generator just as no camera has a magic composition and subject matter button. Photograhy too requires hard work and practice.

It seems that those who have nothing of value to offer are often threatened or angered by those who do.

Also if you have read my posts, you would have noticed that I have criticized as well as complimented artists, but I have never belittled or denigrated them.

Some of the comments presented here are not solely by critics, but by professionals. Criticism or critique may come from teachers, mentors and fellow professionals. To deny that their observations have no value is short-sighted. When I compose something I often solicit the advice of my fellows.

Passing muster amongst you peers also carries a great deal of gratification. Even the unenlightened or unschooled may have words of wisdom to impart. As had been said, "Out of the mouths of babes oft' times come gems."

This message board has value on several different levels. On the main it is well worth it.

Nice HDR... a very vintage look... almost like awakening in a different era... the glow from the bridge in a bluish haze makes it really look like an image from an early Jules Verne sci-fi novel... Good job!
